Adult Studios
Professional artists provide individual instruction in small classes. Regular offerings include painting classes in acrylic, oil, and watercolor. Other featured topics include printmaking, drawing in the galleries, and Chinese painting. Most classes run eight weeks (with some exceptions), and we also offer one-day workshops. Museum members’ fees are reduced.
Currently, adult studio art classes are not available for purchase on line.
